As part of the Global Green Bond Initiative, we launched a strategic partnership with @the_IDB & @BIDInvest to cooperate on technical assistance for promoting green bond markets in Latin America and the Caribbean. https://t.co/mNOVhhc7Ty #FinanceInCommon2023
To fill the financing gap for sustainable infrastructure and give certainty to private investors, we start our Global Green Bond Initiative.
With €1 billion from @EIB and EU countries’ development finance institutions.

A pleasure to welcome in Brussels EU investors & Mexican firms to discuss how to scale up Mexico’s sustainable bond markets. It’s a priority under the Global Gateway. Thrilled to have @maria_ariza@BIVAMX joining us on this journey @EU_Partnerships
🟢 Green light for 40 new #EFSD+ guarantee programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and Asia Pacific!
€6.05 billion in guarantees will be key to deliver #GlobalGateway in partner countries and contribute to achieving the #SDGs, by crowding in private sector funding.

Le 🇱🇺 est un défenseur du projet européen & un allié de @EU_Commission. C'est un plaisir de recevoir @vonderleyen pour discuter de nos priorités. Nous devons rester ambitieux: dans la protection de notre planète, mais aussi avec notre budget & nos relations avec nos voisins.
I am disappointed with the results of #COP25.
The international community lost an important opportunity to show increased ambition on mitigation, adaptation & finance to tackle the climate crisis.
But we must not give up, and I will not give up.
It's the first morning of the #WebSummit and the atmosphere is already buzzing! We caught up with EIB Hristo Stoykov who shares with us the success of the EIB Venture Debt product and its impact for European companies now and going forward.
The EU27 has agreed that it will accept the UK's request for a #Brexit flextension until 31 January 2020. The decision is expected to be formalised through a written procedure.
Que Colombia sea la primera sede del @EIB para Latinoamérica es un gran mensaje para nuestro país, para el entorno regional y para el mundo. Esta es una gran demostración de confianza que nos llena de orgullo. El Banco Europeo de Inversiones tendrá en nosotros un Gobierno amigo.
